Awesome!
My horse and I love this book. The author has a gift for presenting theory and practical techniques in a clear, concise, well-organized manner. Anyone, with the intention of wanting to help horses, is able to follow the excellent photos and instructions to achieve this end. Since first reading this book I have studied human massage and bodywork and can attest that there are few instruction ...

dream garages and their cars!
I like this book. It is not intended to be a "how to" for designing a garage. That subject has been well covered by other titles. This is about great cars and the people who own/collect them. I find its interesting to learn how serious car people get the bug and rearrange their lives to accommodate their passion for cars. This book spans a broad array of car people - from methodical ...

Illustrating the Wide Range of Designs
Through splendid photographs and insiteful text, this book explains the special approach that VJAA brings to architecture. The general style of their designs fits into the modernism but with more of a sense of oneness with the site, not only its physical attributes but the sociological and cultural aspects of the site. The buildings cover a range of uses from single family residences and a ...

Rousing Good Tale, Recommended
This novel is written as a series of interlocking short stories. It has a fairly large cast of characters, but the relatively narrow focus of each story helps keep them all straight. The characterization is limited for most of the characters. This novel does not have the annoying flaw so common in Warhammer fiction of the central characters surviving regardless of how improbable the odds. ...
Life's Pleasures: The Ashcan Artists' Brush With Leisure, 1895-1925

A top pick for both New York and college-level art libraries.
Relatively few primers offer in-depth details on the Ashcan artists: a school of early 20th-century American artists whose work centered around New York City life. Here the underworld of the City was often displayed - and LIFE'S PLEASURES is the first book to explore the lighter side of the Ashcan artists' works, featuring leisure scenes in cafes, bars and parks and movies. You'll recognize the ...

Highly Recommended
I saw the author on C-Span2 and ordered the book immediately. I was not disappointed. This is a gorgeous and informative book about the history of maps and how they reflect our understanding of the world in which we live. Anyone who has ever enjoyed the beauty of maps or has wondered how maps were made before aerial photography will love this book.

Gorgeous
This is a truly magnificent art book, large, heavy, complete. The paper on which the book is printed and on which the paintings are reproduced is very thick and fine. The most famous masterpieces collected by Sterling and Stephen Clark are reproduced here -- in bright, vivid color -- are a delight and are awe-inspiring. The brothers were truly great collectors and their circumspect life proves to ...

Montgomery's Auditing, 2001
Montgomery's Auditing, 2001 is just a supplement to the 1998 version. You need both the 1998 version plus the 2001 to be current. I would prefer to have it all in one book.
The Pigmentary System: Physiology and Pathophysiology
Oxford University Press, USA
, 1998
Our knowledge about the function of the melanocyte has expanded beyond boundaries not previously imagined. The melanocyte is no longer considered merely a factory for the production of the pigment melanin. Old data do not contradict the new but must be reinterpreted in light of modern concepts of molecular and cellular biology, enzymology, biochemistry, chemistry, and physics. Diseases of the pigmentary system must be understood in terms of ...

Rockport Publishers

A visually stunning monograph
Despite its modest format, this elegant monograph more than does justice to Vincent James' extraordinary copper pavilions floating in a birch forest, comprehensively illustrated here with a wide range of visual materials, from early design sketches, construction photographs, and extensive working drawings to exquisite images of the finished building through four seasons of rain, mist, snow, ...
Target Hitler: The Plots to Kill Adolf Hitler

Praeger Publishers
, 1992
really interesting and important
Most books about the Third Reich mention the von Stauffenberg plot (sometimes called the General's Plot) against Hitler, and a few allude to "other" plots, but Target Hitler attempts to provide a history of not only the General's Plot, but the other serious (and sometimes tragically comic) plots against Hitler. Contrary to some other writings on the subject, Duffy & Ricci assert that Rommel ...

Dreams that are sure to keep you awake well into the night...
Buying this collection for the sole purpose of reading Gary McMahon's expertly crafted and amazingly original story WOLF DREAMS is certainly well worth the price, but the eleven other tales by some of the big names in the horror genre are perfectly realized stories that run the gambit of the dream motif. This anthology is shining addition to the horror genre. I highly recommend that any lovers ...
